Chapel spokesman Shawn Absher tells E! News the two were "very happy and very sincere" before tying the knot.
According to county marriage records, the two got a marriage license about 30 minutes before tying the knot.

Tyson's 4-year-old daughter Exodus (whom he has with Sol Xochitl) died May 26 after she accidentally got her neck wrapped in a cord from an exercise machine at home.
"We are grateful for the tremendous outpouring of love and prayers from all over the world," Tyson said in a statement. "There are no words to describe the tragic loss of our beloved Exodus. We ask you now to please respect our need at this very difficult time for privacy to grieve and try to help each other heal."
Tyson was previously wed to medical school resident Monica Tyson (she filed for divorce on grounds of adultery in 2002). They have two children together.
He was also wed for one year to actress Robin Givens in 1989.

shellyMAYBE IT'S JUST ME. i don't see how my child dies and the next best thing for me to do is get married two weeks after. i know people heal in all different ways but thats just alittle to strange for me. losing a love one is hard let alone my own child. i don't care what any body thinks but two weeks is not enough times to get over a child and move forward.report abuseposted June 12, 2009 3:25 PM PDT
